Headlight pitting fix?

[Russell]

Thought I saw a fix for headlight pitting a few weeks (months) ago. It was some sort of coating? that fillled int the pits?

Tried search on headlights and pitting etc. No positive results. Anyone remember? Could be aniother forum?? TIA

Wonder why I could not find it either. Now to see if I can find it locally. Web prices show less than $20.

Russell - send me a PM with your mailing address. I'll ship you the can I used. I don't foresee ever using it again so I might as well pass it on.

Is this the right stuff? Anyone know if a regular auto parts place would carry it?

Hi Russell,

Here's is a great site for headlight fixes such as maintaining optical transparency, pitting, yellowing... I plan to use these methods to repair the yellowing of the GF's VW headlamp lenses.

Thanks. However, my lens are glass. Most of their techniques work with plastic. Will print out for ref.
